1) Power: I had in mind "only" 1200Watt at whether that's enough, because my old Bagless had twice the performance. Then pure enthusiasm of the 6 power levels I use only in very exceptional cases even the most level 4. Level 5 I've never used the 6th and most powerful level. Attention! This information is only valid with original bag if you buy cheap alternatives there is sure to power loss.
2) "bag Sucker": Yes I had for many years a bagless vacuum cleaner and had this constant and frequent emptying of the container just tired. First fit into the container not much pure (for me it was just 1.2 liters) and secondly you have to always beat this stupid filter, brush and rinse times and eventually dry. Every time you stand in a cloud of dust and if you know it is time again, it sucks at the end not at all and let the vacuum cleaner in the corner stand.
Here in this bag sucker Everything is different, it fit all 4,5Liter pure, which is more than 3 times compared to bagless most. When the time comes, out bag and new bag pure and feritg. This is much more pleasant and especially hygenischer. Above all, one has here the bags as a filter and two additional. Since much remains more dependent than in the bagless unit.
3) Efficiency: I think for a long time were dust bags so overpriced that bagless units simply had an easy time. Clear will not regularly spend money on bags, BUT !!! One should calculate times genaus what. Actually cost and keep in mind that losing the bagless usually much suction the bag Here in this particular case the cost Miele "Original Bag" 4Euro about the piece, you still get the same compensation for the 2 filters in the package. That's not much, but the bags are really very good. This has nothing cheap with these "paper bags" do you know otherwise. As already said, the pouch is a filter and it is important that much air passes but could not get the dust remains. 4,5Liter also hold for quite a while, so you do not need every month to buy a new bag.
But the crucial point for me, my old Bagless needed his full power of 2.4 kW while sucking while this unit is the same suction power with estimated 1kW produced. That means in one hour so suck saves 1.4 kWh about 33 cents and you really have a eingie hours suck until the bag is full. So for me, the bill goes on, so I save as much electricity I me the bag "afford" can. Which is a comparison with a mid-priced bagless, whether it is worth have to stop any superior self. Incidentally, the current is not less;)
For absolute bargain hunters, there are third-party bags for about 70cent the piece. These are compared to the electricity consumed really no cost. But I would not suggest it, because you sure lost a lot a of suction. Habs but honestly not tried.
4) Processing: Absolutely amazing, for me the Porsche of vacuum cleaners. It's easy to suck fun with it, looks good and is processed absolutely weritg. Since there is nothing to complain about.
5) Cable: For our old equipment I had 2 times reposition to suck the whole apartment, in a conventional cable length I'd say. With this device, you have a really long cable, and I come back without any problems throughout the cable length almost to exhaust. Sounds like a small thing, but something like a permanent replugging just annoying in the long run.
CONCLUSION: I love it finally fun to suck dust. Things annoy some, it is not supplied with the device simple. Everything is consistent and to get therefore well with the work ahead. The cost of bags you can in my opinion be neglected, look simply times how long it sucks up a full time and extrapolate the cost of electricity. Because lurking costs and therefore makes me a more economical bag sucker more sense than a bagless power guzzlers.
Addendum (new):
The first bag we had to change after about 3 months. We have 2 people + a baby in the household (80m²) and no pets.
The second bag we have so long left in it until it was really full. Finally, we had to shift up a power stage, but the bag was recently also so full that the lid of the bag no longer walked;). That was only once a test to see how long it can hold a bag, because we have probably changed the first bag quite early. And actually the second 8Monate held. One must also remember that we as the new vacuum cleaner was naturally have really sucked every corner. So there was a lot of months old dirt here who had gathered in hidden corners. So I guess it comes with a bag easy four months out tended to be longer.
We have sometimes measured power consumption. We use only the power levels 3 and 4:
Level 3 = about 660W
Level 4 = about 820W
At full power is measured actually yield about 1200W. In one of my usual Saugaktionen 0.42 kWh resulted in 33Minuten. I soak about 4 times a month (ie 4 times correctly and all rooms) that then makes 1.68 kWh.
Now the new calculation, because the bags are cheaper (only 3 per bag) and last longer than expected:
At 4 months per bag the 6,72kWh or 8,8h makes up a bag is full. That makes up at 33cent per kWh in total electricity costs 2,22Euro.
Now let us take my old bagless of would always ran on 2400Watt the 21.1 kWh and therefore 6.97 euros.
Conclusion:
- By now cheaper bag even save us one against a standard bagless vacuum cleaner by the power savings money. So the "bag principle" save more money through cost power than the bag. This applies even more for "Good sucker" that suck relatively long without much dust collect here, because it's relatively clean. Who, of course, once sucked in and then really what clears away for the bill goes more in the direction of bagless.
- Now, the comparison with the market leaders of beuttellosen which consumes 1300W and always (not adjustable as far as I know). That would be only 11,44kWh and therefore 3.78 in my sample calculation. So you would in a bag with the Miele approximately 1:50 minus opposite the market leader, or turning the Miele fully on (although you can hardly reasonable suck because the suckers everywhere "sticks" but no matter) then would be the power consumption even identical and would full 3 per bag "loose". That would be in 4.50 to a maximum of 9 additional costs of bag against the leader of Beuttellosen. But this is more expensive to buy than 100. But in 11 to a maximum of 22 years you have the money with the bagless back inside;)
